Aiding Ireland: The Great Famine and the Rise of Transnational Philanthropy - The Glucksman Irish Diaspora Series
Anelise Hanson Shrout
Looks at the ways that disparate groups used Irish famine relief in the 1840s to advance their own political agendas. They included enslaved Black people, poor tenant farmers, plantation owners, abolitionists, and politicians. Most of these people had no personal connection to Ireland. Shrout uncovers what was to be gained for each group by participating in global famine relief.
